Capabilities
Soil Surveys
Service websiteComprehensive soil analysis and mapping services to evaluate site conditions for septic permitting and design suitability.
- Level 3 Soil Surveys
Required for septic permitting by the Georgia Department of Public Health, this analysis provides soil identification and mapping, giving soil classifications, estimated percolation values, depths to seasonal high-water table and bedrock, and trench depth recommendations.
- Level 4 Soil Surveys
In-depth analyses used to confirm or dispute initial soil classifications, establish loading rates for non-conventional septic systems, and determine systems that function in poor soil conditions, using mechanically dug pits and direct measurements of hydraulic conductivity.
Sewage and Septic Design
Service websiteProfessional engineering design, consultation, and permitting assistance for both residential and commercial septic and sewage systems.
- Residential Sewage and Septic Design
Engineering design and permitting assistance for conventional and non-conventional residential septic systems, including drip distribution and mound-type systems.
- Commercial Sewage and Septic Design
